RIlEo % RUMBLES.

The new train TO be run through to
Omaha on the Central and Union Pacific
will be a flyer. By putting it into service
these lines will shorten the time between
San Francisco and Chicago by nearly
twenty-four hours. Between San Francis
co and Ogden the Central Pacific will
make the run in tbirty-six hours. and be-
tween Ogden and Omaha the Union Pa
cifc will make the same time, although
its track is 200 miles longer than that of
the Central. This will reduce the running
time TO Omaha to s~eventy-two hours, and
to Chicago to ninety-four hours. At pres
ent q passenger from San Francisco ar
rives in Chicago on the fifth day.
A paragraph is going the rounds OF the
press to the effect that the Manitoba rail
way had q large party of engineers in the
field now in the vicinity of Flatlaead lake,
in Missoula county, running a preliminary
survey for that road from Great Falls via
Flathead lake, the kootenai countrv and
river, thence across the Pend d'OreilIe
river and valley and on to the sound.
This would indicate an early continuation
of the Manitoba through to the Pacific
coast.

BETTERMENTS.

The lessees OF the Western and
Atlantic Railroad knew the condi-
ton of the track and rolling stock
at the time they leased it, and their
bid, though less by SO, 900 per month
than the Dobbins bid, was no doubt
based on the fact that they would
have to spend good deal of money
in betterments, but they used the
road as long as they could aud help
ed to wear it out, and now it is their
duty to turn the road over in good
condition and with first class rolling
stock. The State should not have to
rebuy the Road from the lessees BY
paying an enormous sum for better
ments, and we know the grit of the
Legislators will not allow this valua-
BILE piece of property to be wrecked.
The surplus rolling stock of course
they have a right to claim pay for,
but not for betterments.

that our school was controlled by a certain
denomination, but that is mistake. We
know no one by their creed. Some of all
the following denominations live in this

some of all attend We are neighbors band
ed together in unity and nothing else in
view but to evangeize and teach the young
and rising generation to be better men 'and
women than we have been, and learn them
how TO read and think for themselves. We
have no sectarianism in our school. IL we
were to use any literature it would be the
union. We have some classes OF little BOYS
and girls that would surprise any one TO
hear them recite. We will have our cee-
bration on Saturday before the fifth Sunday
and expect to have nice time We have
some interesting exercises ourselves and
expect some from other schools. Hope
everybody will come with big heart full of
good feeling Tor all mankind and the Sun
